Issue #3010 has been updated by Charlie Sharpsteen.
Also, addressing this issue would tie into fixing #4820 which raises the issue that it is somewhat silly to be able to specify both normal and special schedules in a cron resource without Puppet raising a fuss. ---------------------------------------- Bug #3010: Crontab entries using "special" parameter can't be converted to non-special entries https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3010#change-87880 * Author: Jesse Wolfe * Status: Accepted * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Category: cron * Target version: 3.x * Affected Puppet version: 0.25.2 * Keywords: * Branch: ---------------------------------------- A crontab entry created like so: <pre> cron{ "test": command => "/bin/echo > /tmp/puppet.txt", special => "reboot", } </pre> and then changed like so: <pre> cron{ "test": command => "/bin/echo > /tmp/puppet.txt", minute => 50 } </pre> will not change, and will show the notice: notice: //Cron[test]/minute: defined 'minute' as '50' on every run. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
